I like your tagline. I’ve had the extended version of that quote on my FR profile page for some time now.
On one side you have the liberals who want to control everything, on the other side you have the general populace (who, I think, still possess the spirit of our founding fathers, we just haven't had enough, yet) - but in the middle, you have the "moderates" working to get a compromise between us both.
Make no mistake about it, it's the compromiser who will sell us down the river, not the power hungry.
